Interoperability Testing for Government IP Services

  Mu Helps Government Agencies:

• Prevent service outages for mission critical networks

• Automate Information Assurance procedures

• Reduce Cyber Security risks

Civilian and Military branches of the Federal Government agencies share highly-confidential information with a multitude of clients and servers from multiple vendors. To magnify the interoperability challenge even further, there are a near infinite number of COTS and home-grown application software running on government systems that need to be tested for interoperability.  Automated recreation testing of these systems is the only way to stay on top of this highly-variable set of test combinations.

From the perspective of the traffic being injected into the IP Service, the operation of the Mu Test Suite is indistinguishable from the operation of the original device because the traffic is essentially identical; it follows the same "script" and delivers equivalent sessions and content over new, live sessions. This is not packet replay: The Mu Test Suite is creating new sessions that are indistinguishable from the traffic that the original device would have sent. In the end, the only way to tell if the service can still support legacy equipment is to actually interact with the service as a legacy device would.

By adopting Mu’s Test Suite and Mu’s adaptive test approach for Interoperability testing, Government agencies and their vendor suppliers are saving time, lower costs and significantly increasing test coverage throughout the development and deployment cycle.
